He totaled 20 goals, 10 assists and 27 ground balls as a senior
at Governor's Academy (Mass.), and played in the Champion
All-American Showcase, a US Lacrosse event, and the Under Armour
All-America game.

Davis played in four games last season as freshman at Penn
State, tallying one point.

It's a welcome addition for the Terriers, who play their first
varsity season this spring in the competitive Patriot League.

BU is one of eight Division I men's programs to start this year,
with Furman, Monmouth and Richmond the others.

The Terriers' first game is Feb. 8 in Georgia against
Mercer.

In addition to its eight Patriot League games, including against
newcomer Loyola, BU in the non-conference will host Canisius,
Vermont and Providence at its home venue, Nickerson Field, play a
mid-week game with Harvard and travel to Duke for its
regular-season finale.

Nine newcomers, including the three original transfers, one
walk-on and five members of the BU club team, joined the initial 34
members of the inaugural recruiting class to boost the Terriers'
roster size to a 42-man roster. Davis adds another.

“The plan was to build a program. That was something we
never lost focus of. It’s easy to get caught up in building a
team for one year,” Polley, a former Yale assistant, said
this summer. “Our goal was to put together a very good
foundation with our incoming class, but also not lose sight of our
club program and history, and try to combine both for the best
product on the field.”
